IMF: Jordan achieves stable growth despite regional
challenges
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission chief for
Jordan Kristina Kostial said on Tuesday that the Jordanian
economy has been resilient in a difficult environment,
especially with fluctuations and shortfalls in gas supplies
from Egypt and the ramifications of the Syrian crisis and the
conflict in Iraq on the Kingdom. She added the Jordanian
economy growth has remained relatively stable at 3 percent.
Inflation for October has dropped by 2.3 percent, while the
international reserves of the Central Bank increased from
there to comfortable level at about six months of import

Electricity companies struggle with JD310m in unpaid dues of subscribers
Subscribers owe the country’s three electricity companies over JOD 310 million in accumulative unpaid dues despite collection
efforts, according to officials from the providers. Subscribers' delay or failure to pay their utility bills to the Jordanian Electric
Power Co. Ltd. (JEPCO) increases the company's financial burdens, as it borrows with interest to cover its dues to the Energy
and Mineral Resources Commission (EMRC), said Hassan Abdullah, strategic asset manager at JEPCO, which distributes
electricity to end users in the central region, the most inhabited region in the Kingdom. Abdullah said the total amount of
subscribers' unpaid dues to JEPCO is up to JOD 220 million, adding that some subscribers have become financially unable to
commit to paying their bills, while others are either expatriates or owners of abandoned houses .

Murad asks US to help eliminate Israeli obstacles to trade with Palestine
Amman Chamber of Commerce (ACC) President Issa Murad on Tuesday requested US help to facilitate trade exchange between
Jordan and Palestine. During a meeting with US Ambassador to Jordan Alice G. Wells, Murad called for American influence
through drawing up mechanisms to ensure a smooth flow of Jordanian commodities to with Palestine and to eliminate Israeli
obstacles hindering trade with Palestinians. Discussions covered the need for the US to support small- and medium-sized
enterprises in the Kingdom, in addition to programs and plans aimed at combating poverty and unemployment. The two sides
stressed the need to foster cooperation to help facilitate investments in the area of renewable energy and gas explorations through
providing the required technical and financial assistance. The ACC chief underlined the importance of cooperation to promote the
US-Jordan Free Trade Agreement on all levels to maximize the benefits of the accord for both sides. Total US investments in
Jordan currently amount to USD 2.2 billion, constituting nearly 8 per cent of the USD 27.6 billion total accumulated foreign
investment in Jordan.
